Alright, I kinda want to know how we feel on people role-playing key members of the League of Legends?

Not Ashram of course as he is MIA, but what about Vessaria Kolminye?

If you are against this, could you give a reason why?

My issue would be that they might get too big of a head, but what do I know about people?

Very plausible. In fact, I like to promote it. It's just that you can have people with egoistic minds. Rather expand the world of Valoran by introducing important characters. Maybe we can have someone roleplay as Ram Steed.

I am highly against the act of RPing as a skin of a champion unless it makes sense. It may not have a clear definition, but I believe we all know why Brolaf and Gent Cho can replace Olaf and Regular Cho while most regular skins can't.
As for non-champion characters, it'd be awesome.

I like the idea of the RPing non-champion characters. Though we have to know our limits and play within it. It would seem silly to have someone RPing Ayelia, the girl who helped Alistar or as Keiran Darkwill. Ram Steed is definitely a important lore character that can be RPed and I wouldn't mind someone RPing as him.

I dislike the idea of playing non-champion characters such as skins or items or minions or whatever else. And even moreso, I thoroughly disapprove of playing canon Riot characters that hold key positions in the Institute of War. Don't forget that all those characters have Riot employees behind them, and basically grabbing their canon characters out of their hands would be a grand failure of RP etiquette. Also, basically none of those characters have definitive bios that help a player outline their course of behavior, so any kind of portrayal is almost bound to be out of character.

I left the Runebook roleplay when people began roleplaying as Pink Ward and Left Jungle Wolf On the Blue Side Of Rift. As exciting as that sounds, it just does not work out, so please... don't.

RP-ing as different champions and summoners allows people to deeper understand the lore that Riot tried to create for this game, which is great considering they stopped making the JoJ quite a bit of time ago.
